Updated over a week ago

When you are at a job and Stripe payments is activated on your Klipboard account, you will have the ability to select Scan & Pay as a payment method. This lets your clients pay immediately in person on their mobile device, using Apple Pay, Android Pay, Google Pay, or their credit card.

With Scan & Pay, your Klipboard mobile app generates a QR code for an Invoice that has been created. This QR code can then be scanned by your client with their mobile device. A screen will then appear on their device prompting them to make a payment.

Note that you must have Stripe connected to your Klipboard account and that team member permissions have been activated for Invoicing on the mobile app.

  • Once your client has paid, you will receive a message on the Klipboard mobile app confirming payment. This message will be displayed in the Messages section of the mobile app Do not worry if you close your screen before your client has paid, you will still receive the message when the payment has been received.

What your client sees when using Scan & Pay

When your client scans the QR code with their camera, their mobile device will give them a prompt to open a link in their browser. The client should tap this prompt.

The client will see a payment amount and a payment mechanism (Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Android Pay, depending on their mobile device). They can either tap the Pay button or they can enter their credit card details manually. Their mobile payment will process based on their preferences.

Once their payment has been processed, the client will see a Paid message and will receive an emailed copy of the paid invoice.
